Boston university transfer fall 2020

Wow very interesting @vutfs20 @falltransfer2020 . I guess we will find out sometime next week what is going on.

Is it too late to submit my SAT score? I didn’t bc it was optional, but now I’m thinking that if I did, it would help my chances

@vutfs20 @marlon01 hopefully! What major/school are you guys applying for? I’m applying for CAS Political Science

@falltransfer2020 I am applying to the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies for the Middle East & North African (MENA) Studies major. I wanted to note though on the common app I had to choose CAS. So the school is a branch of the colleges under the CAS.

@falltransfer2020 CAS International Relations

@marlon01 that major is in the Pardee School.

@vutfs20 it says it is in CAS

@vutfs20 Yeah it is in CAS

All I had to turn in for my financial aid section was the CSS profile and FAFSA… I’m confused why everyone has so many different things

@eriddle same, when did you submit all of your financial aid materials? i sent mine in before the march 1 deadline and im wondering if the additional requests from BU were sent to those who submitted the financial aid stuff later

@eriddle yeah it’s kinda stressful, sounds like they are already accepted. They will probably receive their decision next week

@gmedeiros09 I submit the CSS on 2/27 and the FAFSA on 1/11. Maybe it just means that there was no info missing from our forms bc the W-2 information along with the house member listings and student income information are things already included in the CSS and FAFSA

Honestly, who knows, We will all find out in time

A few weeks ago I was asked to send in my CSS profile. Could this mean anything?

@potential574728 The FAFSA and CSS profile are required documents for students looking to get BU funded financial aid so if you put down that you were applying for aid then they’d need the CSS from you anyway

Applying to CAS Linguistics. No one has gotten their decisions back yet, right? Good luck everyone!

For the people that said their portal was bugging out, what exactly did it look like?

If I apply to CAS, does the major that I pick affect my chances of getting in?

@Kliang No. They admit by school not major
